Enlik-Kebek, Memorial monument in Abai District, Kazakhstan.

The stone monument rises on Shubartobe hill, featuring traditional Kazakh architectural elements with a central tower and surrounding burial structures.

The monument marks the burial site of Enlik and Kebek, two lovers who met their death in 1780 due to inter-tribal conflicts.

The site represents a significant location in Kazakh folklore, where the story of Enlik and Kebek became a foundation for multiple literary works.

The memorial stands 5 kilometers from the Semey-Karaul road in East Kazakhstan, accessible through a designated pathway from the main route.

The current structure, built in 1960 by local residents, replaced an earlier tower constructed in 1875 by musician Birzhan Sal.
